I’ve got quite a few days to catch up on as far as posts but I did finally upload the past week’s photos to ShutterCal and you can see them there.
Today I took Eva out on the water to kayak and fish. We’ve been contemplating buying a new kayak for the family. Maybe a double or maybe a single with a large cockpit so that the kids can paddle with us. We looked at some boats at Cape Cod Kayak however we’re not in a position right now to buy another big ticket item. So, instead I towed Eva around while she was in Allison’s boat. If I am going to do this often I have to figure out a better position for the tow rope.
This morning was overcast but I figured that we could get a couple of hours on the water. We got about an hour and a half of time on the water before the skies opened up and started pouring. Luckily I got Eva into the car before that happened. Unfortunately I still had to put everything into and onto the car in the pouring rain. I did get it done before thunder and lightening started as well. In all it was fun and Eva enjoyed being on the water with me. We’ll work on getting out more regularly.
I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Discover Boating. I received collateral to facilitate my review and a promotional item as a thank you for participating.
I was selected to be an Ambassador for Discover Boating. This is a nonprofit program that is supported by the U.S. recreational boating industry to encourage and help people to get out on the water and enjoy the excitement of boating. The site is DiscoverBoating.com and it is an online resource for people who are interested in getting their feet wet by boating. I’ve poked around the site a bit looking at how-to-videos, the boat selector guide and tons more information. The one video that I watched that really stood out to me was Good Run which is a man’s reflecting on his life through boating. It is a beautiful video. You can find it on the home page of DiscoverBoating.com. It also shows up as “A Father’s Tale Down Memory Lane”. The Get of Your Dock guide to boating is a colorful easy to read guide with information from the rules of boating to buying and even naming your boat.
